Cafe job opportunity

We are looking for a part-time to full-time barista for The Ragazzi Room—an independent coffee house near USC. It’s not your average barista job.

This is the perfect opportunity for a creative, motivated individual to make a mark on a local community. The café has just been reconceptualized by volunteers (professional community members and USC students – architects, designers, artists, chefs, builders, and other creative people) together with the owner. The space itself was given a facelift. We are looking for someone to further the vision of a creative, beautiful and sustainable café in South LA.

-- Candidates need not be already trained baristas but experience is preferred.
-- Ideal qualities: creative, independent, hard working, energetic, people savvy, punctual, reliable
-- Tasks include not only regular barista duties but also providing insight into how to make our space better and better. Part of your job will include conceptualizing more economical ways of organizing the kitchen and the workflow, coming up with creative uses of the space, event planning and looking for new ways to market to and communicate with the local community.

Pay is $8/hour, however there are opportunities for pay increases based on how well the café meets its monthly revenue targets. If you are interested in this position, please contact Jay Jung at (213) 741-1723 during normal business hours.
